click on picture to enlarge...

didn't really find much news on this event...
here's what i got from using an online translator...

for a watch promotional event moses wore a $760,000 (HK money) watch...
he said something about the watch being too precious...
he can't buy it...
and then reporters said something about moses buying an apartment (lou) for bernice liu...
moses tells the reporters he doesn't want to discuss his private life...
then the reports asked if he bought an apartment for his mother...
moses tells reporters his father passed away early, his mother worked hard to raise him and his 2 brothers, she's is pretty thrifty, when he planned on buying her a massage chair she didn't want it, the most important thing is he spends more time with her and chats with her, she will already be satisfied...
but moses has also thought about buying an apartment for her...

direct translation:

Tavia Yeung, Bosco Wong, Moses Chan, and Lai Lok Yi were filming earlier at the Miramar Hotel for a scene in "Storm in a Pool" that tells of Bosco and Tavia's wedding banquet with around 20 tables of guests and Moses playing the saxophone.

...

Moses was playing on a guitar in between takes and he says that he can play many songs. Asked if Bernice Liu has heard him play, he smiles: "Many people have heard me play before, I don't know if she has heard me though." Moses denies he uses his guitar skills to attract the ladies, laughing that this is just his secret weapon on the stage.

Shanghai: Raymond Weil [news]...


click on picture to enlarge...
source: dayoo.com


on the 13th and 14th...
moses, bowie lam, sheren tang, and gigi lai went to shanghai...
to promote watches...

direct translation:

Legendary cast members of "War and Beauty," Sheren Tang Shui Man, Gigi Lai Chi, Bowie Lam,and Moses Chan appeared in Shanghai for the 30th anniversary of Raymond Weil watches yesterday.

Considered the black horse in this year's TVB Anniversary Best Actress Award, when Sheren heard about rumors that Charmaine Sheh had taken out TVB executives for dinner to trade for an award, Sheren joked, "It's only September now! Wouldn't it require several dinners until the end of the year? I heard of the news too, but I don't think this is the reason Charmaine went to dinner with Virginia Lok and Chan Chi Wan. When we return to Hong Kong, we will take them out to dinner too."

Bowie commented, "I am a man and will not take part in the competition for the Best Actress Award. But I do think that Charmaine Sheh will have a high possibility to win the award this year."

Reflecting back, several years ago, Gigi Lai and Sheren Tang were both in the race for Best Actress Award, resulting in many rumors that the two did not get along. However at the event, both actresses appeared to be quite friendly with each other, proving that there are no forever enemies in this world.

Due to the mis-scheduling by the event organizers, the media had to wait over 2 hours for the artists' appearance. Several disputes with the event staff resulted and the atmosphere became chaotic.

Despite their popularity, when the artists appeared, nevertheless they became somewhat the object of disgruntlement. When asked publicly why they were late, Moses came to the rescue and said, "I'm sorry; I apologize publicly for being late. Due to a tropical storm in Hong Kong, there were flight delays. We wanted to arrive earlier too; how about we treat for dinner?"

filming Heart of Greed [4]...


click on picture to enlarge...
source: Oriental Daily


Moses Chan, Linda Chung, Yoyo Mung, Fala Chan, and Carrie Lam were filming for "Storm in a Pool" on location yesterday in a scene where they were celebrating Linda finding a new job and Moses presenting her with a bunch of flowers. Due to the appearance of Yoyo, Carrie and Fala, then Moses throws the flowers away for fear of them finding out his feelings.

In real life, Linda says that she likes to receive flowers, but she would prefer for men not to give them because they are so expensive. She believes that just receiving flowers once is the best. Asked when it is the best time to give flowers, she laughs that when the man expresses his love, this is the best time. When she was seventeen, a man whom she had known for a long time bought her flowers to show his feelings and she was very happy as she felt puppy love, but in the end she did not accept his approach. She explained that feelings have to be built up over time and she did not want to be untrue, but he still has a chance. Asked if she has received flowers from any men from the industry, she smiles she has not and believes that no-one is brave enough.

As for Moses, he is a romantic person and has bought flowers for girls before. he says that he is a very traditional man and giving flowers is a very basic gesture. Some people think that giving flowers is a waste, but Moses does not agree, so even after entering showbiz, he has continued to buy flowers for girls. He says: "Flowers are agreat birthday gift, especially for girls because it means more than just a normal gift!" When the reporters mentioned that flowers will die very soon, so it is not very practical, Moses says that giving flowers makes people very happy and it does not matter about practicality. His character in the show likes Linda and asked if he has any kissing scenes, he laughs that they don't, because he is not very successful and for once, he has no girlfriends in the series.

bernice [stupid news]...

stupid news...
some news are just too far out...
i don't know where the press gets their info...
but sometimes it can be funny...
sometimes...

bernice liu was doing a promotional event for lipton...
and the press decides to ask about the news on her parents and moses...

here's the detail:

With recent magazine reports that Moses Chan has been bombarding her with phone calls to try and win back her love and that he has been seeking her out in the studios, but she has not taken any notice of him and being very cold to him and further reports that her parents don't like Moses because he is not rich, Bernice says that she does not need to take any notice of these rumours. She says frankly that the reports make her very unhappy, because they involve her parents and she needs her parents to console her. As her parents often join her on set, then they know many artistes quite well and when asked if they like Moses, Bernice laughs that her parents like all her colleagues. As for them disliking Moses because of his lack of money, Bernice feels that in life money just comes and goes.

phone calls and looking for her???

charmaine says moses...

when charmaine sheh attended 3D gold jewellery store ribbon cutting ceremony...
she was asked to comment on bowie lam and moses...

here's what happened:

The reporters also discussed about TVB actors and Charmaine were asked to comment on Bowie Lam and Moses Chan. Charmaine said they were of two different personalities. Bowie speaks slowly, does not have temper, and belongs to the gentlemanly type. As for Moses, he's more active, loves to joke, a little crazy, doesn't care for himself much but very courageous while filming series.

moses, steven ma, sonija kwok, tavia yeung, kenny wong, and other cast members were present...
moses sang the the ending song (subtheme) at the event...
but he lip-synched...
and also had a cheat sheet...
his reasoning is lack of sleep...
moses said he is happy to have the chance to sing...

news translation:

Also Moses was arranged to sing the ending theme song to the series at yesterday's event, but not only did he have to mime, he also had to read the lyrics from a crib sheet. Afterwards he explained that he was not up to standard because of lack of sleep, but he promises to sing live next time. For Steven who hails from a singing background, he did not sing and Moses was asked if he had been favoured over Steven. He immediately replied: "Don't say that! This was arranged by the company and I am happy to have the opportunity to sing."

Heart of Greed [naming ceremony]...


click on picture to enlarge...

yesterday the naming event of the 40 episode series was held...
and the name is...
溏心風暴
direct translation in english is "storm in a pool"...
so lately there have been news of yoyo mung going out with ekin cheng...
so that was a big topic of the day...

this is what moses has to say:

When Moses Chan heard that Yoyo and Ekin may be dating, he immediately said: "They're not? (Do you feel that Yoyo has been very happy lately?) I have not seen her much recently, but she has always been like that and I know many of the Christians in the show have joined to go wakeboarding and to play sports, so there should be nothing there. (Do you feel they match each other?) It is just gossip! (Would you be happy for them?) If Yoyo is not saying anything, then how can I speak? I have already said a lot and I don't want to respond to everything."

land of wealth [promotion 1] translation...

here's the direct translation of the news for yesterday's Land of Wealth promotion...

Moses Chan, Sonija Kwok, Tavia Yeung, Kenny Wong, and Lai Lok Yi joined other cast members from new series "Land of Wealth" at a promotional event in Tin Shui Wai yesterday, where they freed some carp to wish for good ratings. The other leading male Steven Ma was absent because of illness. As well as the carp event, the cast also took part in some watersports leaving them all hot and sweaty. Tavia joked: "I have not done exercise for a long time and this is the most I have sweated for the past few years!". Sonija has also been lacking in exercise and her legs were quite weary after her session on the water bikes.

Moses wore a pair of white linen trousers, so when these got wet, he half revealed his underpants, but he laughs that he likes wearing linen clothing so he chose this pair of trousers especially. As for waterbiking, Moses says he has tried this before when he visited Guilin as a child. Asked what expectations he has for "Land", he hopes to maintain ratings above 30 points and if it reaches 35 points, then he will hold a beach party for everyone to appear in swimsuits, men in trunks and women in bikinis. If it reaches 40 points, then everyone will have to get wet too. Asked if he would like to see Sonija and Tavia in swimwear, he says honestly: "Yes, I have never seen that before!"

When it was mentioned about Moses's pledge to the audience, Tavia agreed at once saying: "Okay! As long as I have a swimsuit on, then it is alright. (But it will be a bikini?) If it is healthy, then I don't worry about people seeing me. (Are you worried about being compared to Sonija?) We will not compare, we will just match our designs and make sure it looks good. Moses will have to wear triangular trunk in an extra small size!"

Talking about the recent rumours that a showbiz couple filmed the female changing on a mobile phone, which was later stolen and held for ransom, Tavia says that she does not film personal things with her phone and just photograph day to day scenes. She uses her phone to contact people and she uses pseudonyms when she stores her showbiz colleagues' numbers, to avoid any problems if she loses her phone.

i know i just posted the news like a few minutes ago...
but then i found another translation...
from a different news source...

Bernice Liu Stands Up For Her Parents


click on picture to enlarge...

A China Arts and Crafts store located in Hong Kong held its opening ceremony yesterday. Top model, Eunis Chan Ka Yong (陳嘉容) and a group of models wore various kinds of expensive jewellery. Bernice Liu Bik Yi (廖碧兒) made an appearance in a spaghetti-strapped dress with an embroidery design, displaying a taste of traditional beauty. The set of jewels that she wore was named 「飛躍荷塘」, which included a diamond necklace, a bracelet, a pair earrings, and a ring, totalling $720 000 altogether.

There were reports that Bernice dumped her boyfriend, Moses Chan Ho (陳豪), because her parents thought he was too poor and looked down on him for that. Bernice appeared very upset about these statements and said, “The decision to enter showbiz was my own. My dad and mom were very supportive of this, so it’s very unfair to say things like that about them.” She insisted that she would not respond to these rumours any further.

Moses, who was at Tseung Kwan O TV City yesterday, expressed that that whenever a new series is scheduled to air, these types of news will surface. He also deliberately turned out his pockets to pretend to be broke. He said, “I’ve met her family before, and I didn’t feel like I was being looked down upon. I don’t mind reports written on me being poor, after all it’s not bad having people feel sorry for me.” Just then, Bosco Wong Chung Chak (黃宗澤) walked by, carrying takeout. He interupted and said, “He’s a super rich guy! Always treating people with abalone!”

2nd news:

The Central Branch of Chinese Arts and Crafts opened yesterday and held a "Summer Attraction" event to showcase some jewellery, with Bernice Liu and Eunis Chan leading the models adorned with diamond jewellery.

Bernice says that she prefers jewellery with a simple design and the first time she received jewellery as a gift was when she graduated from high school and her father bought her diamond jewellery. With recent reports that her parents dislike Moses Chan because he is not rich enough, Bernice scolds the press for having no morals for even pulling her parents into their stories even though they are not in the public eye. She also points out that her parents have never given an interview of this sort. As an artiste, she does not mind stories being written about herself, but they should not extend this to her family because this affects them greatly. As for the other elements of the reports, she will not respond to them.
